And my fire, and my cat, and my Ineerschaum. TOW

And blowing lazy cloud below;
blowing n cloud from my meersohaum black,

With a light alpaca coat on my back
And nothing particular on my mind:
Dreaming may be, OF fame, or std'c,
OF hoi Co that kindle, OF loves that bless
Como poorls might call it wasting life,
But It's very pleasant nevertheless
And Ileasanter stn when, afcr while,

And 10 with Tutoring blush and smile,
She comes 10 meet me, my own wee lass.
NV love OF tho blue eyes, tender and soft,
And yellow hair In tho sun that gllstened,
with a smlo that's the l'vc seen oft,
And q now pork-pie and feather that isn't
Cara mia, love is sweet,
Love and beauty, summer and youth.
And true IL the love that lay at your fc,t-
You nay laugh, ms dear but You know it's tho trlth.

And now ard then word ard a smile.
We dream through tho summer afternoon

A Second Andrew johnson

Henry WatIersgn in Louisville Coulter Journal.
Mr.. Cleveland seems to us a second
edition Of Andrew johnson. He hs:
neither the ability to carry all before
him, nor the fiexibility to adapt him
self to circumstances. He lacks the
genius to inspire men with confidence
and the geniality to attract them per
sOnally. He believes that he is right
and he feels that he is honest, and,
having had little experience in measur.
ing national forces, he imagines that
he is sufficient merely because he
thinks he is. When he encounters
defeat, as he often does, he sulks;
and when he is subjected to public
criticism, he tries to strike back, in.
stead of taking the world nerrily and
cheerily, picking his flint and trying
it again, and seeking, by his sunny
self confidence, to disarm his critics
in spite of themselves. He has con-
trived, somehow, to array against
himself most of the powerful agents
of Democratic opinion ia Congress,
in the press, and over the country at
large, and to make himself, for all
his industry and economy, a most un-
pleasing figure in the public life and
thought of the country. Why is
this? Everybody engaged in the
business of politics and journalism
cannot have a grudge, and be instiga.
ted by some small, mean, personal
motive, to turn the face darby upon
this one meritOrious chieftain, who
has ali the talent and all the virtue
of tie time.

The revival spirit has not only
taken deep hold in this city but in
nearly all the neighboring towns
there is an awakened spirit of Chris.
tianity which cannot fail to have a
good effect. 1t is true, as is often
claimed, that many of the so called
conversions are merely the spon.
taneous overflow of the emotions
played upon by system of religious
hypothesis, as illustrated by some
able exponent, but on the contrary
there are those who, impressed by the
good seed which is sown in the soil OF
a not altogether hardened heart, re-
solve to follow the Master and when
this is the case surely the angels in
Heaven must rejoice. There is some
thing even in the example of those
who have consecrated themselves
upon the alter of Him Crucified
which even wording grown old in
sin must respect AM which must
create a longing to 60 and do like
wise. By revivals christian people
are drawn nearer together and what
ever cross may rest upon them, there
comes a su.cease of the bufhen.
1t is indeed well for a town and a
people when they show an interest in
religious work such as has been evil
denced here during the past week
and is not much wonder that a
Christian minister of this city re.
Gently remarked that he hoped, and
had reason for his hope, that Sedalia
would in the near future "not only be
called a city of churches, but a city OF
Christians as we'll"

The Poultry World gives this eau
ton: Beware of using too much car
bolic acid on poultry. Unless you are
accustomed to use it, you are more
apt to kill than cure. Better to keep
the chickens healthy by keeping them
dry in coops out on clean ground, with
clean feed and clean water, and kill
sick ones, than to kill all. Care, eau
ton and common sense will raise more
chickens than all other remedies COM

He Felt His Importance.

From the Boston Gazette
For years he had been trying to get
into politics, and ran the full gamut
of ali the tricks of the trade; but for
some reason wasn't successful. At
last he got SD far as to be made Justice
of the Peace. and the first man that
went to make an affidavit before him
happened to be a rough Old neighbor
who had known him ali his DAYS.
The old man, who was us lacking in
politness as most of his kind, stalked
in and began TO tell his story without
lifting his hat. "Sir" exclaimed the
new Justice, who had been swelling
with importance. "sir, You should al
ways remove your hat when you
come into the presence of me and
God"

CHICKEN CHOLERA.
A Terrible scourge for Which rs Yet No
Sure Cure Has Been Discovered.

A Terrible Scourge for Which rs Yet No
Sure Cure Has Been Discovered.
The symptoms of cholera are great
thirst, a nervous, anxious expression,
greenish droppings and rapid prostra-
ton. Its work is done quickly, usual.
ly killing the birds in twenty-four
hours or less. When it attacks flock
the sick birds must be separated from
the others and a thorough cleaning
and disinfection of the whole premises
yards, coops and even the roosts and
nests-must be made by sprinkling
with water, to every gallon of which
an ounce of carbolic acid is added.
Although hundreds of remedies have
been proposed, it is doubtful If sure
cure has as yet been discovered for this
terrible scourge of the poultry yards.
The best mode of treating a large
flock of fowls is to allow them no
drinking water at all. but add tea
spoonful of strong liquid carbolic acid
to a quart of water, and use this water
for mixing the soft food, which should
consist of two pounds of corn meal,
one pound of parched -four, half
pound OF fenugreek and an ounce OF
bread soda. Boil pound of the inner
? bark of the red oak tree in half gal
Ion of water down TO a quatr.
Take q pound of the mixture,
pour in a gill of the red oak bark de-
coction, stir it well, and then add the
carbolic water until the whole is of the
consistency of dough, but do not have
1t too stiff. Give them all they will
eat of it. In fact, keep it before them
all the time. Those who do not eat
should be forced by examining with
tablespoonful of the mixture twice q
day. This will be absolutely necessary
with turkeys. Give no water until the
birds begin to recover. Then add
twenty drops of carbolic acid and
tablespoonful of red oak bark solution
to each pint of the drinking water.
Keep the sick birds dry and warm, dis.
infect all droppings as soon as they ac.
cumulate, and bury or burn all dead
oirds.-Americdn AqTiclltHrist.

The Sedalia BAzoo, angrily ans

that Kansas City has taken away q
goodly part of Sedalia's population,

The Times is mistaken in accusing
the BAzoo of being angry, it is never
angry, but always in earnest in de.
Tending its city and its people. As
for Senator Vest and Judge Philips,
the former has not for several wears
been resident of Sedalia and the
latter--well, the latter will re,
member that the BAzoo was his friend
when he needed friend and will
not call upon the Times to defend
him.

All Medical Authtrifies

Agree that catarrh is no more nor less than
an inflammation of the lining membrane
OF the nasal air passages.
Nasal catarrh and all catarrhal affection
of the head are not diseases of the blood,
and il is serious mistake to treat them rs
such. No conscientious physician ever
attempts 20 do so.
1t is held by eminent medical men that
sooner or latter a specific will be found
for every disease from which humanity
suffers. The facts justify us in assuming
that for cstarrh at Leaf a positive cure
already exists in Eiy's Cream Balm.
